A big thank you to all my sponsors, support team, witnesses and everyone that came by to cheer me on (also the online viewers)! Without all of you I would never have been able to raise all the money nor break the record! Here is a picture of my wife, Philip from Guinness World Records, and myself at the ceremony.
